Random Observations & Notes

* Tuesday brought more evidence that Asa is a sharp cookie. I'm not talking about recognizing letters or stringing sentences together or anything of that nature. No, it struck me again as we were kicking the ball in the backyard at the tail end of my lunch break on one of the first days of the year that noticeably felt hot. I realized that somehow he had positioned himself in the shade and I had been dispatched into the sun. Yep... that's just practical, common-sense smarts...

* Have you ever eaten a meal that you knew you, as you first laid eyes upon it, that you would regret? Happened Tuesday night when we decided to try out the new pizza place up the street. I honestly can't think of the name of the place... but suffice to say it would be best to ask them if you can get the grease on the side. The experience reinforced our belief that the best way to do pizza is at home. Whole Foods has a really good frozen cheese pizza (their in-house 365 brand) that has got to be healthier than what you'd get out (I know it's pizza but, isn't everything at Whole Foods healthier?). We've taken it and added spinach or beef or whatever and made pretty nice pizza that is definitely cheaper than what we'd get out. I recommend it.

* Lately, for whatever reason, I've had the urge to try to blog some more. Can't say what form it will take or how long it will take... or what (if anything) I hope to accomplish. We'll see.
